All The Haredim Are Still Black

The "Tal Law" which exempted the Haredim from army service expired last night at midnight. And yet when I woke up this morning it seemed as if nothing had changed. The Haredim I saw on the way to work, were still not wearing army green. Nor did they seem scared of the multitudes of cops seeking to arrest them as "draft dodgers."

What happened this morning is that as a collective we all shrugged, and decided to just keep going.
